He was more obsessed with shoes than anything, although he did chew the arm of the sofa.
Fortunately, the stuff he has actually destroyed has been relatively meaningless. He tends to carry shoes around, but has not harmed any.
He also seems to enjoy moving my small, red plastic shoehorn around.
I hope the phase passes quickly.
bonny, sending all strength to you as you let this frenemy go. Uggh.
Thanks Hon. The super upside of all this is that I am truly appreciating the people I actually love. Present company included!
eta: I have not breathed a word of any of this mess to the frenemy's ex...any more than I've spoken to her about him.
In a fantasy that will never become reality...I want to support him in his life change by pointing out that, despite the galactic depth of the hole he dug for himself in years gone by, his growth has eclipsed hers in a major way. I suspect he doesn't need me to point this out...but it would still feel good.
The red plastic shoehorn strikes me as the perfect dog toy. It's small! It smells of feet!
Oh, and there are underwater swimming scenes to show her isolation and alienation.

Precisely! I had put it up, out of reach for many weeks, but brought it back down this morning when I applied my sneaks for our morning walk. This afternoon, he reminded me that consistency is key.
His foster suggested that he was 11 months when they acquired him in March. This would make him about 14 months.
Really? He looks younger than that to me. I think you might be right.

Just leave out the comparison to the ex. "You know, you have managed to write a much happier ending for yourself than I dared imagine for you, when I first knew you."
OK, this movie just had a plot twist even more ridiculous than I would have thought possible:
the imaginary friend is actually the husband's mistress, who is helping him drive his wife crazy. And the wife just killed her.
Good counsel, Andi. I'll do just that. He deserves the praise, regardless.
Really? He looks younger than that to me.
Right? Yeah. He's too squishy still to be a year...though I'd love to have a more accurate estimate. Too bad you can't carbon date animate objects...or, you know, anything less than thousands of years.
Hil, I did not expect that. How is it that Lifetime movies are so terrible? I can only imagine that they're written for people who aren't really paying attention to the story, and are only kinda watching as they run about doing busy things. This is how my sister used to watch movies. Jumping up every 2 minutes to rush off and do something, falling asleep 20 minutes in, waking up ten minutes from the ending, asking what happened? They need movies with a simple plot, few and simple characters easily distinguished from each other, much repetition and exposition, short scenes, and direct dialog. This is my theory, which I just made up.
